Army veteran wins lottery twice in two months




Nov. 22 (UPI) -- Retired Army veteran Andrei Jones of Greensboro, N.C., has won the lottery twice over the course of two months.

Jones won $150,000 on Thursday from a Cashword scratch-off ticket after he had won $1,000 from a scratch-off ticket in September.

I've been buying lottery tickets off-and-on for over my lifetime and have yet to win anything over $50.
